TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to La Corne.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

La Corne is a municipality in La Corne; Abitibi, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. La Corne is located at 48.3574°N, 77.9963°W.
La Corne sits amidst a landscape of resilient boreal growth, defined by the steady, dark flow of the Rivière Baillairgé. It lies 24.6 km south-south-east of Amos, QC (from Amos, QC: bearing 160°T), and is situated 9.0 km east-north-east of La Motte. Beyond the immediate banks, the terrain settles into a quiet stillness, where the low-hanging light of late afternoon catches the reeds along the water’s edge. Only two kilometers distant, the surface of Lac Simard offers a mirror to the shifting clouds, its presence grounding the surrounding woods in a deep, reflective solitude. The air here carries a crisp, mineral quality, a reminder of the vast, ancient bedrock that shifts almost imperceptibly beneath the moss and spruce. The identity of La Corne is deeply influenced by the earth beneath it, where the extraction of lithium has long defined the local industry and shaped the working lives of its residents. Men and women have turned the soil to uncover the elements of the modern age, building an economy that relies on the strength of the land rather than the bounty of the surface. This focus on mining gives the daily life in La Corne a pragmatic, industrious edge, yet the pace remains defined by the changing seasons and the long, luminous twilights of the north. Traditions persist in the quiet maintenance of homes and the enduring bonds of those who have chosen to settle near the Rivière Baillairgé, finding purpose in the persistent, unyielding nature of the Canadian shield.
La Corne s’étire avec une simplicité austère sur les rives de la Rivière Baillairgé, là où la terre d’Abitibi révèle ses contrastes entre la rudesse du sol et la douceur des crépuscules. À peine à deux kilomètres de là, le Lac Simard offre ses eaux calmes aux derniers reflets du jour, créant une atmosphère de recueillement qui semble suspendre le rythme des activités minières et agricoles. Le paysage se déploie en vastes étendues où la lumière décline avec une lenteur mélancolique, soulignant la texture granuleuse de la terre qui a longtemps nourri les espoirs des pionniers. Dans ce cadre, La Corne conserve une identité forgée par le travail acharné et la patience, loin des agitations urbaines, portée par un vent qui apporte parfois le souvenir des forêts environnantes. Les silhouettes des habitations se dessinent contre un ciel immense, tandis que l’air frais rappelle la proximité des éléments naturels qui dictent ici la marche des jours. Chaque chemin qui borde la Rivière Baillairgé raconte une histoire de persévérance, une forme de noblesse silencieuse propre aux gens qui, par-delà les aléas de l'économie, habitent ce territoire avec une dignité tranquille. Ici, la vie se déroule sans artifice, dans le respect d’un horizon qui ne promet rien, mais qui offre tout à qui sait observer la beauté dépouillée des terres nordiques.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude.
